Singapore today is one of the most exciting cities in the world to dine in for international cuisine but visitors must also save time (and belly space!) for our local eats!

Hawker fare is my Singapore! They are simply delicious, value for money and a melting pot of culture. Da Dong Prawn Noodle is my favorite and my wish is our hawker heroes will one day be as famous as the great Sushi Masters of Japan.

"I love the intense flavour of hawker food and how it has influenced the Singapore restaurant scene to profile the flavours in their menus. My top three local dishes are bak chor mee, Hokkien mee and Chicken Rice."

"Singapore cuisine is unique because it melds different cultures. If you look at laksa, it really combines curry leaf, coconut, sambal and Chinese noodles very well."
